EDUCATION

2008 – 2013

Computer Electronic Systems – Master’s degree

Gdansk University of Technology

Master’s Thesis – Virtual Impedance Meter.

The designed device is compact and easy to use Virtual Impedance Meter allowing to measure impedance in a wide frequency range (from 10 Hz up to 100 kHz). The most important features of the analyzer are small size (4-layer PCB) and low production cost. Thanks to the use of an impedance measurement method based on DSP and AD5933 microsystem (high precision impedance converter system solution that combines an on-board frequency generator with a 12-bit, 1 MSPS, analog-to-digital converter) with complex analog conditioning circuit, the developed instrumentation can be compared to portable analyzers offered by top worldwide manufacturers.

Controlling the Raspberry Pi via the WebSocket protocol

Tanzstunde: Raspberry Pi steuern mit Android

Raspberry Pi Geek – Linux New Media USA, LLC
Linux Magazine – COMPUTEC MEDIA GmbH

Abstract: The various small computers with relatively powerful microprocessors now on the market are attractive to developers, engineers, and makers alike. The processors provide fast and easy access to hardware buses via I2C, 1-Wire, or SPI, allowing users to combine the worlds of software and electronics. Connecting data to the real world – for example, by reading external sensors or controlling actuators – calls for simple and efficient communication between a client and server, as provided by the WebSocket protocol. Basically, this technology is used when you want to realize fast and powerful, bi-directional communication in real time between web applications and clients. In this article, I present two sample projects involving the operation of a Raspberry Pi as a WebSocket server to which a WebSocket client sends asynchronous broadcast messages […]

An Open Source and Open Hardware Smart Home

Jesien Linuksowa / Linux Autumn / 2014 Conference

At the beginning of November 2014, I had the opportunity to give a speech at a “Jesien Linuksowa 2014” conference. “Jesien Linuksowa” (Linux Autumn) is a “[…] social-scientific meeting for enthusiasts of the Free Software and the GNU/Linux that is organized by the management board of the Polish Linux Users Group”. It was also the first opportunity to present new (pre-release) version of my application – “Raspberry Control 2.0“.

Monitoring of a bathing person

Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics

Abstract: Ageing of the population in developed countries is a major problem and a challenge not only from a social or an economic point of view, but it is also a challenge for engineers, as in the near future there maybe a lack of personnel to take care of the elderly. […] We analyze possibility of bathing person presence by means of impedance spectroscopy. We study optimal electrode configuration for detection of the person in the bathtub and influence of bathing water ingredients (salts, shampoo, soap) on the detectability. Finally we are interested in estimation of person’s activity during the bath process by means of impedance measurements. We have designed prototype of such embedded system and showing results of primary measurements […]

Detection of person presence and its activity in the bathtub

XV International Conference on Electrical Bio-Impedance (ICEBI)
XIV Conference on Electrical Impedance Tomography 2013 (EIT)

Abstract: A practical application of a bioimpedance technique for a detection of a bathing person is presented in the paper. It addresses the possibility of supervising people in the bathtub without voiding of their intimacy. The measurement system installed in a fiber-glass or a plastic bathtub is able to detect a presence of the bathing person, to estimate its activity and thus to detect potentially dangerous events. In the paper a principle of measurement, working prototype and measurements are presented. The proposed method can be useful for supporting and supervising bathing of elders, partially disabled or people with some health state risk during the bath and living alone.
